The 20-80% rule is good general advice for EVs to help extend battery life, but Mini doesn’t have a built-in charge limit setting like some other brands. It’s safe to charge up to 100% for longer trips, but if you’re just running around town, stopping around 80% is supposed to be better for...

If you’re after a decent cover that won’t break the bank, check out AutoAnything or even Amazon, they both carry a bunch of options for Minis, including brands like Covercraft and OxGord. OxGord covers are pretty affordable and actually do a decent job against light rain and bird droppings. If...

😩 It’s likely just a little software hiccup. I’d recommend trying to re-sync your phone with the car, or sometimes you need to restart the car. take a peek in the system settings for any updates that might be waiting. I’m betting it’s nothing major, but if it keeps acting up, it might be a...

you’re thinking about giving back the MINI SE? 😮 That’s interesting, I’ve been seriously considering getting my first EV, and the MINI SE is one of the top contenders for me. Now I’m kinda curious, and a bit confused! about what’s making you want to return it. Is it the range, charging issues...
